Tea Timer
-Pick your tea type - read the steeping suggestions - then click "set steep time"
-A suggested time is displayed, you can up or down the minutes or (10) seconds, then click "start steeping"
-The timer can be paused or reset, the alarm sound can be turned on or off, it plays music while it counts.
If you click back you lose your timer, I think this is a limit of the iPod Touch.
Locking turns off the timing music but lets it beep at the end.

Example:

I am making flora herbal tea

I open the application and click;
Teas – Herbal – Flora – Timer – Set Steep Time

I could have short cut the process and when I opened the application clicked;
Timer – Herbal – Set Steep Time

However I get there I am told;
For infusers: 1 infuser, 5-7 min 208
for loose tea: 1 tsp per cup, 5-7 min 208
Click “Set Steep Time”

Then I am presented with “7:20” which I can then adjust, and I do adjust it to “5:00” and click “Start Steeping”

(all timers really are for any tea you like, company specific ones just are nice to tell you what kind of tea the tea you have is)
